Chapter 222: The Real Man Behind the Scenes
Li Ming is Li Tian's eldest son, the one who died on the way to exile.
Huirong had no expression on his face: "Master, did your subordinates do something wrong?" For so many years, Huirong has been a monk in Nanshan Temple conscientiously, and he has not been contaminated with any red dust. But my subordinates only recognize you as the master in this life. β
"You only recognize me, but what about others?"
Hui Rong stopped talking.
Li Tian didn't speak, there was no expression on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking in his heart.
After a while, Huirong sighed and said: "Master, it's not the eldest son, it's not the second son, they have really passed away, the body of the second son is I personally went to collect it, he died extremely heroically, originally a soldier like him who died in battle can be buried in the hero's grave, but because of the Li family......
However, although the second prince couldn't enter the hero's grave, he was also buried well in the military camp, and his subordinates originally wanted to bring his body back, but General Jiang stopped him, saying that the case had just been sentenced for a few days, and the disaster relief silver had not yet been accounted for, and the court would definitely keep an eye on our group of people, so he ...... Master, I'm sorry. β
"As for the eldest prince, he got sick on the road, that is the bitter cold land, he was sick in the first place, and he couldn't stand it at all when he went, and he went there in a few days. Master, my subordinates swear by the Venerable Master, if there is half a lie in the truth just now, I will be struck by thunder and thunder and die well! β
As soon as the words fell, there was a bang overhead, and lightning came in from outside the house, enveloping Huirong, but half a breath disappeared, and Huirong only felt that he had been closed by the ghost door for a while, and the numbness disappeared after a while.
"Master, monks don't speak."
Hui Rong had nothing to say.
"It's General Jiang." Li Tian muttered to himself, "The person who looks like me on Orchid Mountain is his son Jiang Buregret, and now the chief soldier of the Jiangbei battalion. β
Zhao Yunjing's face finally changed.
He dared to take the initiative to enter this bureau and lift the mystery of the people behind the scenes, just because there was General Jiang in Nanjiang City, and the disaster relief officer of the imperial court was already on the way, so if the person behind the scenes was really General Jiang, then the prince's situation would be very dangerous!
Zhou Mujiao also thought of this, and her face was not easy to look at.
The husband and wife glanced at each other and walked out at the same time with a tacit understanding, but they were stopped before they even went out of the yard.
Xie Jiang glared angrily at the person who intercepted him: "Get out of the way immediately!" Otherwise, this son of the world will want your life! β
The other party didn't dodge or let go, Xie Jiang also stabbed him with a sword, the first one fell to the ground, and the other one immediately made up for it, he stabbed three swords in a row, and three people fell, and someone quickly made up for it, they just stepped on the bodies of their companions, and they didn't care that those companions might still be alive if they were saved.
Xie Jiang was almost dizzy: "Lord Zhao, they are not human at all!" β
"They're what I call the dead." Liang Qiao spoke up, "They have no weaknesses, they don't have their own thoughts, they only obey orders, and if they don't get orders, even if they die, they won't fight back on their own." β
The dead are people who have been stripped of their instinctive reactions and only follow certain commands, they have no joy, sorrow, sorrow, pain, they are not so much human as walking dead.
But no matter what, the other party is also flesh and blood, Xie Jiang doesn't have such a strong psychology at all, and when he kills three, his hands tremble.
Zhou Mujiao and Zhao Yunjing glanced at each other, and the two of them flashed their short knives at the same time, and rushed to the door at the same time.
Only then did those dead soldiers make a move, and as soon as they moved, they were indomitable, even if their heads fell off, their hands and feet were slashed forward because of inertia, and the courtyard was in a mess, and in the house, Li Tian glanced at Huirong, Huirong recited a Buddha number, and finally opened his mouth: "Old general, stop!" β
"Hahahaha......"
An old laugh came from the inner room, and when he walked up, it was General Jiang, Jiang You'an!
Li Tian's face changed, he had lived in this house for so long, he didn't know that there were other people living in this house!
"Jiang You'an, you planned all this? You were also involved in the robbery of disaster relief materials back then?! β
"The matter has come to this point, and I can only tell Brother Li that I can't help it."
"Jiang and An! I consider you an old friend! I have also entrusted my people to you! You're, actuallyβ"
"Compared to what I'm trying to do, what is Lai's worth? Originally, you were just a disguise, but since you still have a granddaughter, I promise you that after the deed, what position they are now, the old man will let them be promoted to the next level. β
Li Tian was incredible: "You are a courtier, even if you successfully rebel and ascend to the throne, you will not be right, and the people of Li will never recognize you, a rebellious minister and thief, as their own monarch!" β
"They don't dare to deny it." Jiang Youan smiled, "Also, my name is not right, but there are always people who are right." Isn't it, Nineteen Princes? β
As soon as the title of 'Nineteen Princes' came out, Chen Gongzi's face changed.
Meng Jingjing stared at him incredulously: "Chen, Lord Chen, he called you 'Nineteen Princes'?" What's going on? β
Chen Gongzi subconsciously looked at Zhou Mujiao, and saw that Zhou Mujiao's face was calm, and the joy and sorrow were not obvious, he smiled suddenly, and then replied to Meng Jingjing: "Two years ago, someone found me, pointed to the token I wore around my neck, and said that I was the nineteenth prince of the dynasty, and my mother's name was Concubine Ling, she was supposed to be the queen back then, but when I was just born, she was killed by the current queen, and the queen took another boy born on the same day as me into the palace to replace me, and since then he has become the nineteenth prince, and he passed away three years later, and I followed my father to Taohua County, became the son of an ordinary magistrate. β
Meng Jingjing took a step back: "Are you going to rebel?" β
Chen Gongzi didn't reply to her, but looked at Jiang You'an: "The old general really wants to rebel?" β
"Master, the subordinates are not rebelling, but setting things right and taking back what belongs to you for you. This crown prince was originally yours, and this world must be yours! Master, as long as you give an order, your subordinates will immediately raise troops into Beijing and let you board the treasure! Master, give your order! β
Chen Gongzi smiled and walked towards Zhou Mujiao: "Gillian, if I ascend the throne, are you willing to be my queen?" β
"I don't want to."
"Look, she doesn't want to." Chen Gongzi chuckled, "I think it's better to forget about this raising of troops." β
"Master, don't be a hero with a long love affair! When you get to that position, what kind of woman do you want? As long as you give an order, she can't even die, she can only obediently obey the order to enter the palace! β
"That's right, that's right, that's right, but," Chen Gongzi's face was full of regret, "I'm not the Nineteenth Prince. β
"Masterβ"
"My nurse did take the money to take me out, but in the end, my conscience found out, so I changed the swaddling clothes of the two of us, and then changed the nineteenth prince back.
The real Nineteen Princes were killed by your own hands many years ago, and you know this yourself, but you have been planning for many years, and you are unwilling to give up, and at the same time, you want to be in that position, so you deceive yourself and others, and you also want to deceive me, and when the time comes, push me to the throne and let me be a puppet.
It's a pity that the old general has no ambitions in his lower chest, compared to the world, I love my children for a long time. β
Jiang You'an's face changed and changed, and finally he laughed, and then laughed: "Since you love your children, then General Ben will let you be a ghost husband and wife with your sweetheart as you wish!" β
On the wall, a large group of dead soldiers jumped down at the same time to surround Zhou Mujiao and others in the middle, Jiang He'an stared at Zhao Yunjing: "Originally, I thought you had great talent and wanted to cherish it, but you really didn't know how to lift it, so I could only send you on the road!" β
His hand was raised, and just as he was about to wave, a voice came: "How does General Jiang know that we didn't send you on your way today?" β
